Where is ARLO jewelry made?

Does your jewelry wear off after showering or swimming?

You don't have to take them off while showering, swimming, sleeping or working out . You can wear our jewelry 24/7 without the jewelry losing its shine or tarnishing in any way.
What is the quality of your diamonds?
We always use the highest quality of diamonds for our jewelry.
D-G colors, VS clarity, excellent cut.
What are lab-grown diamonds and are they genuine and real?
The simple answer is YES!
The only thing that makes a lab-grown diamonds different from natural diamonds is their origin. Lab-grown diamonds are “grown” inside a lab using technology to replicate the natural diamond growing process. The result is a man-made diamond that is chemically, physically, and optically the same as those grown below the earth’s surface.
Lab-grown diamonds are not fakes or cubic zirconias. They have all the same physical and chemical properties of a mined diamond, in fact even experts would need very special equipment only available in gemological laboratories to tell the difference between a mined or a lab-grown diamond.
Do ARLO pieces only use lab-grown diamonds?
Yes, lab-grown diamonds are more ethical, and kinder to our planet. They also come at a fairer price.
Can someone tell the difference between a natural and a laboratory grown diamond by sight?
No! They would need very special equipment only available in gemological laboratories to tell the difference between a mined or a lab-grown diamond.
Are your diamonds and gold conflict-free?
Yes! Our diamonds are created in a lab, their journey is completely traceable from the diamonds birth until you wear it joyfully.
Our traceable gold, also known as ‘green gold’, comes from conflict-free regions, adhering to strict environmental and human rights policies.
Are you using vermeil or plated gold in your jewlery?

Is the gold you are using sustainable?
Yes, it is! Our traceable gold, also known as ‘green gold’, comes from conflict free regions, adhering to strict environmental and human rights policies.
Why are you using solid 14k gold?
We use 14k gold because it scratches less and doesn’t bent or wear out as easily as 18K gold. Solid 14k gold comes at a much fairer price without diminishing its aesthetic.
How do I take care of my jewelry?
